I have never encountered a "bad" page dataset. I have encountered page errors within a page dataset (usually due to some sort of IO error).
The last time I encountered this (circa 1985) the task referencing the "bad page" received a S028 abend. The system marked the slot in the page dataset as "bad" and proceeded on it's merry way. <snip> As for pagedel - if the page data set hits an error, I think ASM marks it bad, writes an abend089 dump and then either a number of address spaces will fail (those with pages out there on that data set) or only one slot is bad, and then the rest of the system goes on. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
